The SON OF THE SUN AND THE DAUGHTER OF THE MOON

The son of the sun is searching for a wife, and since earthly women who cannot fly are unsuitable, his father approaches the moon, whom he has heard has a lovely daughter. But the daughter is young, and the moon whisks her off to hide her with an elderly couple who have never had a child. With them, Vanishia, as she is known, grows and flourishes. But how will she escape the renewed attention of the son of the sun?

Holly Young Huth has artfully adapted this powerful, almost mythic Saami tale with its unusual tragic conclusion, as Vanishia finds herself in love with one of the Brothers of the Northern Lights.
